FoE PNP G-Platypus Session 74

[18:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM> *****G-Platypus: The City of Broad Withers - Session 74*****
[18:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Hometown.
[18:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  They say home is where the heart is.
[18:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Which makes it hard to place in a heartless wasteland.
[18:21] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Home is, generally, the place that manages to feel safer than the others. With maybe a pony or two that can be trusted, at least a bit.
[18:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Our wastelanders have come from across the wastes, but maybe, just maybe, they feel at home together.
[18:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Or maybe they're just waiting for it to all burn to the ground.
[18:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  *****Session Start*****
[18:24] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The morning arrives. North_Star having spent a long and pleasant night with Lilac. Snack_Cake awakes snuggled up with Toil. Scrap and Thunder_Strike awaken where they ended up.
[18:26] * North_Star wakes up with a stretch and a yawn, taking a look around with groggy eyes.
[18:27] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary sequestered himself off with Gin, who proved to be knowledgeable enough to help repair the motorbike. It took most of the night and he crashed out in the corner while Canary finished. He's still sleeping there when Canary wakes.
[18:28] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  A light purple hoof reaches up and snags North_Star's foreleg as it retreats to stretch. It pulls it right back down across the mare snuggled up against his belly.
[18:30] * North_Star looks down at Lilac with a smile, before stifling another yawn. "G'Morning."
[18:33] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  She trails a hoof in circles across his chest. "Mornin' Lawcolt." She smiles up at him. It was a very enjoyable evening.
[18:42] * North_Star stretched his neck a bit, groaning. "Sleep well, I take it?"
[18:43] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  She smirks. "I musta been really wore out."
[18:44] * North_Star nodded. "I know I would be."
[18:46] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac reaches up to stroke his chin. "Don't act like I didn't wear you out as much as you did me." She smirks and steals a peck on the lips.
[18:46] * Canary stretches and yawns, looking around... "How'd I get here?" He ponders, apparently missing a bit of memory. He remembered finding the bike with Gin, and then bupkiss
[18:47] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary looks around to find a repaired bike and Gin sleeping in the corner. THey are in a part of Railyard he doesn't remember. Shocker. There's a toolbox close to him that has "Slash's Spares" etched in.
[18:49] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Snack_Cake feels an enveloping warmth, especially along her back, as she starts to wake.
[18:50] * Canary rubs his head. At least there was a familiar face
[18:50] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Thunder_Strike and Scrap wake up in Scrap's.
[18:51] * Scrap blinks awake and realizes that Thunder_Strike is cuddled into his embrace. The memory of last night hits him and he blushes.
[18:53] * North_Star chuckles. "Fair enough." He looks around at the state of the room.
[18:53] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The room is disheveled with variuos items spread about and dropped haphazardly about. It was a busy night.
[18:55] * Canary decides to be a polite guest and start putting things away
[18:55] * North_Star sighs. "Miss Priss ain't going to be happy 'bout the mess."
[18:57] * Snack_Cake is sleeping pretty heavily. It feels like it's been forever since she really had a chance to sleep someplace /actually/ comfy! It's going to take more than a little movement to get her out of bed.
[18:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Gin snores in the corner, curled up on his back in a way that's actually rather immodest
[18:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac shrugs. "I doubt this particular room stays too tidy."
[18:59] * North_Star nods. "True enough.." He looks over at her. "Well.. Only so much business can get done in a bed, I'm afraid."
[18:59] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Snack_Cake's mind puts together the warmth wrapping her up is another pony. Short of that, the comfort of the area leaves her mind muddled.
[19:00] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac pushes on his chest and rolls up on top. "But bed business is good business, right?" She smirks.
[19:01] * North_Star chuckles, nodding. "Downright delightful business."
[19:02] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac smiles and lowers her head to kiss where his jaw meets his neck. THen the nape of his neck. Then his chest. THen his stomach. Then... She lets him out of bed fifteen minutes later.
[19:03] * Canary sneaks a peek at Gin's immodesty while he tidies up. Small perks
[19:05] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The perks are ample.
[19:05] * North_Star rolls out of bed, quite reluctantly, but still, and gathers his things off the floor.
[19:06] * Canary is pleased by this
[19:06] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac wipes her muzzle with the sheet and rolls off the other side.
[19:07] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The grip around Snack_Cake is tight, but not uncomfortably so.
[19:08] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil gives a content little sigh. She noses the back of Snack_Cake's ear. "Thanks for staying, Snacky."
[19:08] * North_Star sets Lilac's things on the bed while picking up his own.
[19:12] * Snack_Cake mutters something that might sound like 'warm' if somepony were to listen /really/ close. She's still pretty much out of it.
[19:16] * Thunder_Strike is snoozing softly with a blush cuddled in really close.
[19:17] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac starts slipping into her things, frowning a little as certain areas of fur are a bit sticky and matted. She gets dressed and will take advantage of Sleeper's washroom later.
[19:18] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil gives a happy little sigh. Any night she doesn't have to sleep alone is a good one, and it was particularly nice to spend a quiet evening with the nicest pony she knew.
[19:19] * North_Star smoothes the more unruely parts of his mane out before throwing his hat on, followed by his barding and satchel.
[19:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac slings her rifle over her back and gives North_Star's flank a good smack as she walks by. "I don't know where you all are going, but I'm here another couple nights if you want to get this room again."
[19:23] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Gin's hind leg kicks, almost like a dog in a dream. Canary gets all the pleasing views he wants.
[19:23] * North_Star smiles as he sets his guns in their respestive holsters. "I'll keep that in mind. Try n' keep outta trouble."
[19:23] * Scrap ponders his new situation. It happened so fast, but at the same time felt right. Thunder_Strike has always been so nice to him even forgiving him for breaking her nose. What's Berry going to think though...
[19:23] * Canary makes sure to get a good view as he finishes packing up, then goes to find the bike they had patched up together and see if it was working properly
[19:25] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac turns and smirks. "I only let one bit of trouble in." She gives her flank a sultry wiggle as she steps out. She heads toward the dining car for breakfast, if he follows.
[19:26] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary sees the bike, and even remembers how to turn it on. There are big doors nearby to exit.
[19:27] * Canary takes the bike outside and gets on, starting it up
[19:28] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary fires it up with a masculine hum. It's reading a pretty low charge... but it has enough juice to have a bit of fun on.
[19:28] * Snack_Cake is quite obviously content with the arrangement, too. She's grown to really enjoy Toil's company, and sees her as a very good friend. She's only glad to keep her company for her peace of mind. Though... at the moment, her thoughts are much less coherent.
[19:28] * North_Star does indeed follow, for he is indeed hungry.
[19:30] * Thunder_Strike won't care what she thinks. but feels so much better than she used too.
[19:31] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil runs her hoof from Snack_Cake's chest down over her belly. A smirk on her face as she just so lightly tickles her friend.
[19:31] * Canary takes it for a quick look around to see if he could figure out where he was from something familiar
[19:31] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac puts a nice sway in her hips as she leads him to the Dining car for breakfast.
[19:31] * Scrap nuzzles Thunder_Strike lightly. It does feel nice to hold her like this.
[19:35] * Thunder_Strike opens her eyes softly and smiles. ''hi. um... did we... you know...''
[19:37] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary opens the big doors and finds himself in the a back garage on the railcar warehouse. THe wall is just outside and the town, he thinks, is on the other side of the big warehouse
[19:38] * Scrap smiles and nods. "Yeah, we did. Thanks, it felt really good."
[19:41] * Snack_Cake twitches, tensing up at Toil's touch.
[19:42] * Canary revs the bike and takes it that way to see if his memory was working right this time
[19:42] * Thunder_Strike blushes deeply. ''I haven't let a stallion back there in ages.... but thank you scrap. it really did feel amazing. and you were so gentle.'' nuzzles him.
[19:44] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil's hoof backtracks up along Snack_Cake's belly after reaching her navel and comes up just behind and under her foreleg. It's one of the most ticklish spots! She tickles.
[19:45] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The bike responds, zooming around the warehouse and finding him quickly in the town square.
[19:47] * Snack_Cake jerks awake, nearly jumping out of her skin! She tries to pull back away from what's latched onto her... but only manages to bump Toil behind her.
[19:47] * Scrap blushes just as deeply. "Y-you're welcome. I don't ever want to hurt you or any of the others."
[19:49] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil isn't letting go that easy! She holds on and tickles more! "Wakey, wakey! Snacky!" She's giggling fiercely.
[19:52] * Snack_Cake thrashes. "Ah! Stop... stooop!"
[19:52] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil giggles madly. "NNnnnnooooooo!" Although she stops shortly after.
[19:55] * Thunder_Strike smiles happily at him. ''that's good.. I'm glad you enjoyed it too.''
[19:57] * Canary looks aorund town square for other familiar faces or locations
[19:58] * Snack_Cake huffs, still tense and panting from the tickle assault. "Why'd you have to go and do that...?"
[19:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil smirks. "Because I'm a vicious wasteland monstrosity." Resume tickling!
[20:02] * Scrap nods. "I did... So, what now?"
[20:02] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  THe square is how Canary remembers it. Jack in the middle and railcars around. He doesn't see anypony immediately, but the shops are just opening.
[20:04] * Canary turns off the bike and dismounts, deciding to wait and see who all was coming around
[20:05] * North_Star follows Lilac into the Dining car, still stretching his sleepy muscles every few steps.
[20:06] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac sits at a two top table.
[20:06] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Canary notices Slash coming out of Slash and Slag's.
[20:07] * Canary gives him a wave
[20:07] * North_Star takes a seat next to her, "Been a while since I slept that well." He says, mostly to himself.
[20:09] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash walks over and grins. "That's the project, roight?" He eyes the bike.
[20:10] * Thunder_Strike shrugs. ''I dunno.''
[20:10] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The waitress heads over and takes their orders.
[20:11] * Scrap keeps holding Thunder_Strike. "Well, we could stay like this or go do something I guess."
[20:11] * Snack_Cake rolls and tosses in an attempt to shield herself from Toil's hooves, giggling and laughing uncontrollably. She's having a hard time catching her breath.
[20:13] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil backs off when she starts bluing up. She's laughing all the while.
[20:15] * Thunder_Strike '' I like this. but I do need to go see if slash is done with my saddle soon.
[20:16] * Canary nods and gestures to  proudly, "I'm quite pelased with how it turned out, but it's low on juice. Not sure what kind of fuel it uses."
[20:16] * Scrap nods and starts to get up.
[20:18] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash gives it a once over. He studies it for a while. "Roight. Power cell is cracked. It'll lose charge on the quick side til ya fix it."
[20:19] * North_Star leans back in his seat, having another yawn.
[20:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star feels a hoof slide against his hind leg under the table. Lilac smiles as the food arrives.
[20:21] * Canary nods, "I see. Know anyone around here good with the sciency stuff? I could figure out how to build the machine itself, but I'm not sure this is gonna be within my expertise. any chance it can just be replaced?'
[20:22] * Thunder_Strike stops him. ''n..no. please hold me... alittle longer 0please?''
[20:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash strokes his chin. "Slag could fix it, gonna be expensive either way."
[20:23] * North_Star shares her smile before digging into breakfast.
[20:23] * Scrap blinks and stops. "Sure."
[20:24] * Canary pouts a little. "No sure I have much in the way of funding for that."
[20:26] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash shrugs. "Should hold a charge for a day, but much more than that would be pushing it."
[20:27] * Canary dips into his saddlebag, "Hmm... might have more than I thought. Wasn't really on my mind the last few days, so it figures that I forget what I have."
[20:30] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash nods. "Probably be a grand or two, Slag would have to give the final number."
[20:30] * Snack_Cake starts gasping for breath. "I can't... No more...!"
[20:31] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil releases her grip and plops back on the bed.
[20:33] * Thunder_Strike smiles and cuddles in softly.
[20:33] * Canary frowns, "Dang. More than I thought, but not quite that much."
[20:37] * Scrap smiles back and holds Thunder_Strike. "You're really soft."
[20:37] * North_Star wipes his mouth with a hoof, "Nothing like a good breakfast."
[20:37] * Thunder_Strike blushes deeply. ''thanks scrap. you are too.''
[20:37] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash gives a shrug. "Slag can give a final number, she's gotta do the work."
[20:38] * Canary nods, "She up yet?"
[20:39] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash nods.
[20:41] * Scrap holds Thunder_Strike a little tighter. It is quite nice.
[20:41] * Snack_Cake is still a bit tense, but she relaxes slightly as Toil let's go.
[20:41] * Canary nods, "Might as well ask so I have a goal to work towards."
[20:43] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash grins. "I'm sure she'll take care of you."
[20:44] * Canary heads into the store, putting the bike on its kickstand
[20:44] * Thunder_Strike smiles and snuggles close. ''thank you scrappy.''
[20:45] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil rolls away, giving Snack_Cake a bit of room. There's a tap at the window.
[20:45] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag is behind the counter.
[20:46] * North_Star rummages through his cap pouch to pay for his meal, "Well, I should see if the others are awake."
[20:46] * Canary waves to Slag, "Morning."
[20:46] * Scrap smiles at Thunder_Strike. "You're welcome. Thanks for trusting me. This feels nice."
[20:47] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  THe breakfast is tasty, and the hoofsie under the table is nice too. Lilac smiles to North_Star as they finish.
[20:50] * North_Star smiles at Lilac before sneaking a peck on her cheek. "Be seeing you around town, then?"
[20:51] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac nods. "Damn right you will."
[20:52] * North_Star nods. "Perfect." He fishes out the caps to pay for his meal.
[20:52] * Thunder_Strike nods
[20:52] * Snack_Cake sits up a bit, still catching her breath. "Next time... just wake me up normally? Please?"
[20:52] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  "Oh, I didn't think you were in for that kinda stuff." Toil waggles her eyebrows.
[20:57] * Scrap keeps holding her for as long as she wants.
[21:00] * North_Star gets up from his seat, giving Lilac one last wave before slipping out of the car.
[21:00] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Lilac blows him a kiss as he goes.
[21:01] * Snack_Cake gives Toil a confused look. "In for... what?"
[21:04] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil sighs. "It's less funny if you don't get it." She looks over to the window and gives a little jump, startled.
[21:05] * North_Star looks around town, pushing his hat brim out of the way of his eyes.
[21:08] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star doesn't see too much bustle. Slash is over by Jack. Canary has just slipped into the weapon shop.
[21:09] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag looks up to Canary. "Morning."
[21:09] * North_Star decides to do the same, following after Canary.
[21:13] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag gives a little wave to North_Star and looks back to Canary. "What can I do for you boys?"
[21:14] * North_Star walks over towards the selection of shotguns, "Wondering if you picked up anything new while we were gone."
[21:16] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag smiles. "Not a lot, what are you looking for?
[21:18] * North_Star looked towards the counter. "Thinking of trading my double-barrel for a lever-action."
[21:20] * Snack_Cake looks over toward Toil (and the window), frowning a bit. "Get what?"
[21:21] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Blue stands on the sill, he taps the glass again. Toil chuckles. "Nevermind, sweetie." Her horn lights and she opens the window.
[21:21] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag nods. "You looking for a shortbarrel or long barrel?"
[21:22] * Snack_Cake smiles. "I wonder how he managed to track me down..."
[21:23] * North_Star looks up at the selection. "Shortbarrel, if you got it."
[21:23] * Thunder_Strike smiles softly. ''thank you so much scrap. lets go now.''
[21:24] * Scrap smiles and nods. "Ok."
[21:27] * Thunder_Strike nods then gets up.
[21:28] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag nods. "Well, I think I might have something in the back." She slips into a tight closet behind the counter, having to wiggle in a bit. THere's some grunting and cursing and the sound of head hitting shelf. It's a bit before she manages to pull herself out. "Thought I saw it when we were cleaning, got put back in the back. Maneshin M1887." She gives it a spin, chambering a round.
[21:30] * Scrap gets up and starts putting on his armor, claws, and packs.
[21:36] * North_Star walks over, smiling at the sight of the firearm. "S'not bad."
[21:36] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  She gives it a toss to him. It's well balanced, but the spin move will probably take a bit of practive.
[21:40] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag leans over the counter, her store filling up. She grins as North_Star checks out the weapon.
[21:41] * Scrap finishes up and stands with Thunder_Strike, smiling at her, ready to leave.
[21:41] * North_Star looks down the sights of the shotgun before attempting the spin for himself.
[21:45] * Thunder_Strike nods at him. fully dressed and ready.
[21:47] * Scrap heads out with her, walking close with her. It feels different being with her now. It feels good.
[21:53] * Thunder_Strike feels much safer with a strong stallion with her now. like she can take on anything!
[21:56] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star is at home with weapons and quite dexterous. He manages it in a few tries and quickly gets it down.
[21:57] * North_Star nods his approval. "Very well made."
[21:57] * Scrap walks toward Slash and Slag's with a wide smile.
[21:59] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Scrap can see Slash returning toward the shop with a chest of previously loaned tools on his back. It's open.
[22:00] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag smirks to North_Star. "Everything we sell is."
[22:00] * Scrap waves to Slash.
[22:01] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash inclines his head in a little not of acknowledgement. He heads inside the store.
[22:04] * Thunder_Strike follows scrap smiling.
[22:06] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Blue glides in and plops on the foot of the bed. Toil shrugs. "He's your... pet... I'm sure he's got his ways?"
[22:06] * Scrap follows Slash inside.
[22:06] * North_Star starts comparing his double barrel to the lever-action.
[22:10] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  The lever-action is shorter and quicker than a hunting shotgun, but pretty equivalent.
[22:11] * Thunder_Strike enters. ''yo slash? my saddle done?''
[22:13] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash looks over and nods. "Yeah, it's in the back, yeah?"
[22:21] * Snack_Cake giggles a bit. "He's very resourceful." She leans over and gives him a little hug.
[22:22] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Blue nuzzles Snack_Cake's chin affectionately. Toil giggles. "Guess looks can be decieving."
[22:24] * Thunder_Strike ''alright. how much did you say I owe ya?''
[22:24] * Snack_Cake smiles. "He's a little sweetheart. And he loves the attention. Go ahead! Give him a hug." She makes a little space for Toil to give Blue some attention.
[22:25] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash heads back into his workshop. "Not a thing, Thunder. I got to have a bit of fun with it and drew up some schematics. Seems it's a very unique weapon. It shoots those charged crystals you brought in with it. Quite a bit of range too."
[22:26] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil reaches out a hoof and pats his head, which he allows. It's about as affectionate as she's prepared to get with him for now.
[22:29] * Thunder_Strike ''oh cool! thanks so much slash!''
[22:30] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash smiles. "Alroight. Need a hoof?" He stands over by it. It's an intimidating looking setup.
[22:31] * North_Star sets his old shotgun on the counter. "'Ere, add this to the pile from yesterday."
[22:34] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag smiles. "Will do. It was quite the load. Having Lariat go through it and come up with a number, give her a bit of experience. I'll check her numbers too."
[22:35] * Snack_Cake joins in the petting. Blue is pretty cute, and she's glad Toil thinks so, too.
[22:35] * North_Star smiles, slinging the shotgun over his back. "How much would this knock off the list?"
[22:38] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  "Even thousand." Slag smiles.
[22:39] * North_Star nods. "Fair 'nough."
[22:39] * Thunder_Strike grins. ''oh that looks amazingly... unbalanced.'' she asks
[22:40] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash waves her over. "It just looks that way. Let's get you in it and you'll see."
[22:46] * Thunder_Strike smiles at him and walks over.
[22:47] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash lifts the saddle up. "Come on over, yeah?"
[22:48] * Thunder_Strike walks under the saddle for him.
[22:48] * Scrap stands back and let's Slash handle things.
[22:51] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash settles it onto her back and slides his hooves down to strap it on. It's surprisingly light considering the weapon underneath. He reaches over and presses a button on her yoke, the long weapon folds up against her underside. It's as long as she is, ending just at her chest and extending all the way back.
[22:52] * North_Star wanders towards the shelf loaded with hoofcannons, looking them over.
[22:53] * Thunder_Strike ''oh that's really cool. thanks do much slash.''
[22:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash walks around her, scrutinizing the fit. He nods to himself, satisfied.
[22:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  "Looks roight good on ya, yeah?"
[22:59] * Scrap smiles and nods.
[22:59] * Thunder_Strike smiles. ''sure does.'' she says smiling. then flaps to test if it'll slow her down.
[23:01] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Tucked in the storage position, it shouldn't interfere at all, it might give a little drag when deployed.
[23:04] * North_Star starts inspecting the revolvers, wondering if one would catch his eye.
[23:04] * Thunder_Strike smiles completely satisfied. ''it's comfortable. pretty balanced, light. it's awesome.''
[23:05] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash smiles. Always happy with a satisfied customer.
[23:05] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star doesn't find anything super exciting on display today.
[23:09] * Thunder_Strike lands beside scrap. ''you like it scrappy?''
[23:10] * Scrap smiles and nods. He puts his claws out. "We go well together."
[23:10] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil looks to Snack_Cake. "So, this little... guy... has been... good?"
[23:11] * Thunder_Strike giggles. ''yeah. we do.''
[23:14] * Scrap retracts his claws. "It looks cool."
[23:15] * North_Star gives up and retreats from the revolvers, wandering the shop for anything else of note.
[23:18] * Thunder_Strike giggles smiles at him. ''thanks.''
[23:25] * Snack_Cake nods. "He's been a sweetheart. And so helpful! He's kept me very safe the whole time I've been gone." She gives him a thankful little nuzzle.
[23:30] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Blue makes a sound akin to a purr, but not quite. Toil chuckles. "That's amazing, Snacky. Just, absolutely amazing. How did you do it?"
[23:31] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star doesn't see anything that leaps out and says "Buy me!"
[23:33] * North_Star hopes he didn't see that, or he'd have to cut even more back on the whiskey.
[23:34] * Snack_Cake gives Toil a curious look. "How did I do what?"
[23:36] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil points to Blue as the little murderball curls up against Snack_Cake  and gives her cheek a little lick. His tongue's like sandpaper. "I've seen dogs be like that, but he's a... him."
[23:40] * Snack_Cake giggles. "Well, being friendly helps. And I did sorta help him when he was hurt." She pets him a little more. "If you give a little kindness, you just might get a little back."
[23:40] * Canary spaces back in.
[23:43] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil smiles. "You are the best, Snacky." She smiles. She's kinda like Blue in a way. She leans over beside her with this sudden epiphany. "You help them when they are hurt and show them kindness, then they love you, huh? It's all nuzzles and licks?" She nuzzles her cheek and gives her a lick with a smirk.
[23:46] * Thunder_Strike ''there somewhere I could test fire this?''
[23:47] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash nods. "Sure... but to really get the range we should go someplace high. Roof of the apartments, maybe?"
[23:49] * Thunder_Strike ''hmm. yeah. how about toils apartment?
[23:49] * Canary looks around, "Where... oh right, I was going to talk about a power cell for the bike."
[23:49] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag looks over to Canary. "Power cell?"
[23:49] * North_Star looks over at Canary at the mention of bikes. "What? Gin needs parts or something?"
[23:50] * Canary nods, "Yeah, my bike's power cell is damaged. I was looking to see how much it would take to repair or replace it."
[23:51] * North_Star blinks. "Your bike?"
[23:51] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash grins. "That will work." He starts heading toward the door.
[23:51] * Thunder_Strike follows him and tugs scrap along with her tail.
[23:52] * Snack_Cake tenses a bit, surprised. "I... I didn't mean..." She fidgets a little. "Well... I guess... maybe I did... but not like /that/!"
[23:53] * Canary nods to North_Star, "That's what I said."
[23:54] * North_Star blinks once again before nodding. "Alright then. Just.. No rides for me."
[23:54] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil laughs, oh, there are few sights she likes better than a flustered Snack_Cake. "Well, I appreciate how sweet you've been to me." She gives her another lick.
[23:55] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag listens to the pair. "I'll give it a look if you like."
[23:56] * Snack_Cake fidgets some more. "I... it's nothing. If things were... better... then anypony might have helped you back on your hooves..."
[23:56] * North_Star nods. "I'll get out of your mane, then." He says, slipping out of the store.
[23:56] * Canary smiles, "Your loss." He shows Slag out to where he had the bike on its kickstand
[23:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag prances out. New and exciting gizmos were always fun. She wasn't as nutty about it as Slash, but she still enjoyed it. She starts giving it a thorough inspection.
[23:58] * Canary watches her work in case he might learn something
[23:58] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil give Blue some more pats on the head. "But they aren't and you are special."
[00:00] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash leads Thunder_Strike and Scrap over the rail overpass and over to the entrance to the apartment complex.
[00:01] * Thunder_Strike hums softly as she walks dragging scrap along.
[00:01] * Snack_Cake shakes her head. "I'm nothing special... I just do what any decent pony should do..."
[00:03] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil pokes her in the chest with a hoof. "And that's why you're special."
[00:05] * Snack_Cake shakes her head again. "It doesn't make me special... it just means there are a lot of ponies that should be acting better than they are."
[00:08] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil sighs. "Six in one hoof, half dozen in the other."
[00:10] * Snack_Cake frowns. "There's a lot of difference. For one thing... if everypony treated each other halfway decently, Equestria would be a much better place."
[00:11] * Snack_Cake adds, "We might just have something a lot more like what we had all that time ago... before everything went... bad."
[00:11] * North_Star decides to sit down for a bit and hoof through, "Things that go Boom," for a bit.
[00:12] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil gives a soft smile. "That would be nice."
[00:14] * Scrap hardly needs to be dragged as he happily trots next to Thunder_Strike with a smile on his face. He feels really good today.
[00:15] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  North_Star finds a plethora of explosives.
[00:16] * Snack_Cake nods. "It really would be." She pauses for a few moments, before giving a little sigh. "I think it just has to do with growing up safe from the outside... It's not like we ever really wanted for much. Except maybe more open space."
[00:18] * North_Star familiarises himself with good ol' fashioned dynamite, as well as learns something about the new things.
[00:20] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Scrap, Thunder_Strike, and Slash make their way up the stairs. North_Star finds plenty of stuff to look at.
[00:21] * Thunder_Strike follows him giggling all excited.
[00:23] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil grins. "We'll have to test your idea. We'll keep these two safe and sound and see if they can be as good as you." She rests  a hoof on her stomach. There's a tinkling sound and a small red light turns on above the door.
[00:27] * Snack_Cake smiles at Toil... then looks up. "Uh... what's that?"
[00:28] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil looks up. "Somepony coming up the stairs... I have enough guests I left them up... so far." She rolls out of bed.
[00:28] * Canary waits for SLag to come to a conclusion
[00:30] * Snack_Cake takes the opportunity to get up, too. "Come on, Blue, let's go see who's here." She lets him climb up onto her back before following behind Toil.
[00:30] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slag grins. "I can fix it. Probably take me a bit of time. Call it 750?"
[00:32] * Canary blinks, "Really? That's cheaper than I thought it would be. Deal."
[00:33] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil floats over a weapon and heads to her door and opens it. She moves to the top of the stairs. Her weapon comes back up as she sees the three of them round the corner.
[00:33] * Thunder_Strike looks up and waves at toil.
[00:37] * Scrap waves too.
[00:38] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil grins. "I'm popular today." She looks back to Snack_Cake and then the trio. "Come on up."
[00:38] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  She leads them into her apartment.
[00:38] * Thunder_Strike walks up and gently hugs her. then smiles and hugs Snack_Cake too once she sees her.
[00:40] * Snack_Cake smiles at Thunder_Strike. "Good morning... Did you sleep alright?"
[00:40] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil give's Thunder_Strike a restrained hug. Not unfriendly, just cool. She watches Snack and Thunder interact as Slash makes his way up with Scrap.
[00:42] * Thunder_Strike smiles at Snack_Cake. ''uh huh. what about you?''
[00:45] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil gives Thunder a cool look and heads inside. Her door is open and Slash follows.
[00:46] * Scrap heads in, still sticking close to Thunder_Strike.
[00:47] * Thunder_Strike looks at toil. ''and you?''
[00:47] * Snack_Cake nods. "It's been a little while since we had a good, safe rest."
[00:48] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil hops over on her loveseat. "Good."
[00:49] * Thunder_Strike hugs Snack_Cake. ''yeah. I'm glad we did her this time to rest.'' she says then walks to toil. ''may I join you?''
[00:49] * Thunder_Strike ''oh right. we are here to test my new weapons range.''
[00:49] * Snack_Cake smiles a bit and returns Thunder_Strike's hug. She is a little tense though.
[00:50] * Thunder_Strike will give Snack_Cake a massage later.
[00:50] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil just kind of watches them a moment. "That is quite the gun. Got a big window or we could head up to the roof."
[00:52] * Thunder_Strike looks at slash. ''what do you think will work?''
[00:53] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Slash gives a little shrug. "Either, really. Roof would be a little easier than shooting out a window."
[00:54] * Thunder_Strike roof it is then.'' she says smiling.
[00:54] * Snack_Cake frowns a bit. "And uh... I don't know how you'll be able to shoot that out a window... At least without turning it into a uh... full-body window."
[00:55] * Canary fishes into his pack and gathers up 750 bottlecaps, hoofing them over to Slag
[00:55] <Mister_Clacky|GM>  Toil rolls back off the loveseat. She heads over to the far wall and lights her horn. A hatch opens to the roof. "Alright, up we go then."
